CHRISTMAS BUSH FOR HIS ADORNING		

WORDS BY JOHN WHEELER
MUSIC BY WILLIAM G. JAMES


KEY D

 4   -4   5    6   7  -6  -6b  6
All the bells are gai-ly ring-ing.

  4   -4  5   6   7   -6  -6b  6
Birds in ev'-ry tree are sing-ing.

 4  -6b  6  -5b    5  6   -5b   5
Let us  in  the  gold-en  wea-ther,

 4  -41   5+6  5+6   5   4  -4  4
Ga-ther Christ-mas bush to-ge-ther.

  4    -4  5     6   7  -6   -6b  6 
Christ is born! The an-gels thun-der

 4     -4    5      6    7   -6 -6b  6 
Thro' the heavens their tale of won-der,

-6b   6   -5b  -4   6  -5b 5  -4
While we pluck for His a-dorn-ing,

  4    -4    5    6     5      -4   4
Christ-mas bush this hallow'd morn-ing.

  4     -4   5    6    4 -6   -6b -6
Christ has con-quered Ev-il's pow-'r

 4    -4   5     6  -4 -4     5 -6b
Hear the bells rock ev'-ry   tow-‘r.

 -6b   6   -5b    5   -4  -5b   5  -6
Birds and beasts lift up their voi-ces,

  4   -4   5    6   5    4  -4  4
Freed at last the world re-joi-ces.

 4  -4   5    6   7   -6b -6b  6
On-ward with tri-umph-ant chor-us,

 4   -4  5   6    7  -6b -6b  6
Fol-low-ing the road be-fore us,

-6b   6   -5b   5   6   -5b 5   6
Sing-ing thro' the gold-en wea-ther,

 4    -4     5    6   5   4  -4   4
Gath'ring Christ-mas bush to-geth-er.

ENJOY!!
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
